Portugal | Full-time
At Brunswick Marine, we don’t just power boats — we power people. And behind every great employee experience, there’s someone who ensures things run smoothly, accurately, and fairly.
That someone could be you.

What you’ll own

As our Payroll & Benefits Specialist, you’ll be the go-to expert ensuring every detail behind payroll and benefits is handled with precision and care. From numbers to people, compliance to experience — your impact will be visible every single month.

You will:
🔹 Run end-to-end payroll processes with accuracy and confidence
🔹 Keep employee data clean, compliant, and audit-ready
🔹 Manage benefits programs and collaborate with external providers
🔹 Support employees with clarity and responsiveness on payroll-related topics
🔹 Ensure alignment with labor law, tax regulations, and internal policies
🔹 Own reporting obligations (tax, social security, insurance, etc.)
🔹 Play a key role in onboarding, offboarding, and continuous improvement

What you bring

You’re not just detail-oriented — you’re detail-driven.
✔️ 3+ years of experience in payroll processing
✔️ Solid understanding of labor law and payroll compliance
✔️ Comfort working with HRIS and payroll systems
✔️ Strong numerical accuracy (you spot what others miss)
✔️ Advanced organizational skills and ability to meet tight deadlines

And just as important:
✨ You communicate clearly and build trust
✨ You handle confidential information with integrity
✨ You stay calm under pressure and own your work
✨ You enjoy improving processes and making things run better

What makes you stand out
You’re someone who:
• Thinks beyond the task and understands the “why”
• Brings structure, but adapts when things change
• Cares about the employee behind the payslip
• Looks for smarter, better ways of doing things

Why join Brunswick Marine?
Because here, you’re more than a payroll specialist — you’re part of a team that values collaboration, trust, and continuous improvement.
You’ll work in an international environment where your expertise is recognized, your ideas matter, and your contribution directly supports our people experience.
